To be frank, this game is an absolute mess. I'm playing on a 4070 Ti (not exactly a high end GPU) but does this game CHUG. Even turning down the graphical settings didn't really help. There's lots of stuttering, pop in (the cars are a series of triangles before the entire exterior model phases into existence after about 10 seconds), asset clipping (lots of nipples and bare assess being seen through clothing), shoddy animations and stock assets (why the hell do I shoot two gallons of semen out of my dick, through my partner and the wall on the other side of the room? Why are there 937 identical trees everywhere? Why is there a bench in the middle of someone's driveway?).
If you follow the plot line as the quest menu suggests, you're going to be spending a ton of time running back and forth between your house (the only place you can advance time) and wherever it tells you to go. The game some times gives you objective markers, some times doesn't. For example, one quest has you go to the beach to meet someone. If you look at the map, there is an area labeled BEACH in the middle of the woods but there's also a white, sandy beach front right by your house. Guess which one is the correct place: the middle of the woods. Really, the entire gameplay loop is just running back and forth between points, reading dialogue and making choices that progress the plot or stall you until you go back and make the correct choice. Other than whole sale lifting the Fallout lock-picking mini game, that's the entire extent of the gameplay. I don't know why this needed to be an Unreal Project instead of something on a less robust engine.
If you played the Renpy version of the game, most of the characters return with updated models which while the original version isn't anything special, they had a certain charm to them. There's some interesting design choices made for the updated models and subsequent animations. For example, Scarlett never wears shoes including on bare pavement and in the middle of class, everyone sleeps in their day clothes at night, no character has unique animations so they regularly walk funny and clip through their own body/clothes, etc.
As for sexual content, it's sparse. I was only able to get lewd photos from Scarlett and massage Isabella at the pool in her house. You can meet and talk to randomly generated women (who will routinely force you into dialogue, I noticed this most often near the university and the corner near your house) and if you have high enough stats and pick the correct dialogue choices, you can get their number. Once you have their number, you can set up a date where you do more random dialogue choosing and if they like your answers, you can fuck them. The scenes with the random women are fine but nothing special. I'm here for the handcrafted characters (like Scarlett, Jessica or Lilith) and...there's just nothing there right now.
Could the developer turn this around? Doubtful. It seems like it's a one person crew with no development history besides a single Renpy game. It feels like they bit off more than they can chew and I don't expect them to be to salvage what is a project that's clearly grown out of the scope of what their skills are capable of. They should have either finished the Renpy version or stuck to a much smaller Unreal Engine project.
